10 Ways to “Set the Bar” – Wedding Bar & Teen Drink Bars

At most weddings, mitzvahs and events, the bar is a fun place to be. Good drinks and company are only part of the allure. There’s also the set-up and presentation.

The same looks and designs can be used for alcohol-free kids and teen bars.

2. Bar Filled with Candles & Flowers

This stunning bar is filled with hundreds of candles and flowers, creating a piece everyone is sure to remember.

Bars can be crafted to be a work of art. Jung Lee of Fete NYC made this bar out of birch wood that somehow has an almost translucent quality when lit.

6. Drinks All Around

9. Alcohol Free Teen Drink Bar

If you want a fun bar for the younger set at your Bar/Bat Mitzvah, or if you are having a non-alcoholic event, you can still do something memorable. Try a blender bar, like this one from caterer Abigail Kirsch.
